A few weeks ago, some of us discovered that KDE apps just looked terrible when run in GNOME.
They should test this much more often and frequently. Unlike Gnome, KDE do actually care about their users, not just about themselves.
Dolphin now gives you the option to enable previews for folders on remote locations.
I wouldn't use this for internet connections, but when accessing my Steam Deck through Dolphin on my PC, then this could be fast enough for smaller directories I guess. Meaning as long as the remote location is in the LAN and not the internet, the performance wouldn't be too bad I guess.
Discover now handles the case where one of your Flatpak apps has been marked as “end of life” and replaced with another one; it gives you the opportunity to switch to the new one, or cancel and keep using the old one anyway
Wow! This is a topic we discussed a lot in the web. Not for Flatpaks but often for native package managers like in Fedora or Archlinux, where no longer supported programs are still in the repository (such as neofetch). I still wish this check from Discovery app would be on the side of the package managers+repository information like Flatpak+Flathub itself, as I do this in commandline only. But very nice to see how KDE improves on this front.
BTW a personal little problem from me: My Application Launcher menu is very slow with bad performance. It always freezes for half a second goes loads when I move mouse and freezes again. Does anyone experience this issue?

It's not like GNOME is the only outlier here (for the specific icon problem sure), someone on the linux subreddid also posted this screenshot https://imgur.com/a/1ELtsJb. It seems to really just be that KDE apps kinda struggle out side of KDE. And most of the GNOME devs do care about the users as well, just they also care that their apps look as intended.

It's hilarious how, despite KDE apps being broken on every DE that isn't plasma, people will still find a way to blame Gnome for it.
Contrarily to KDE, Gnome has managed to make sure that libadwaita apps look and work just like they're supposed to and how its shown on the screenshot in the app store. You might not like the theme, but at least you knew what to expect before downloading, whatever distro you are on.
It's great that KDE finally managed to fix their app so that they come with everything it need to function properly. People might be able to use them now on other DEs.
